Odd - I didn't see the reply when I posted about it being in Chicago.... do we have dates yet? I've got friends not far from there (had to drive through there to visit them about 4 years ago). Might be able to make it a double trip and bring my hubby along this time It'd be a hard sell, though, because he hates Chicago lol.

I'm excited about Chicago too. Other than Rochester NY, it would be in my top selections. I might be able to talk family into coming and staying to see a Cub's game. I went to Wrigley field when Q was 8 or 9 and started doing research for my MC, Wrigley Grace Fieldings. The folks at Wrigley Field were wonderful and gave me books and all kinds of information as well as gloves for the kids. I think I'm due for more research though, plus I really want to go to the conference. (Try to book it in a week when the Cubs are home! )
